Bastione della Maddalena
About
On Sardinia, Bastione della Maddalena stands at Bastioni della Maddalena, 07041 Alghero SS, Italy. The site forms part of Alghero's historic sea-facing defences on the island's north-west coast.
The bastion is known for its position within Alghero's old walls, a stretch of fortification that looks out over the water. First-time visitors can expect a walkable historic setting rather than a purpose-built attraction. A 4.4 out of 5 average across 12 reviews reflects a modest but positive response from those who have been.
Reaching Alghero from Cagliari, Olbia, Sassari, Nuoro, Oristano, Costa Smeralda or Porto Cervo is straightforward by road, and the town sits within the island's main network. Capers, olives, aubergines and citrus grow on the warmer islands, and Pantelleria capers are sold widely. Much of the coastline lies within marine protected areas, and the surrounding sea is popular with divers.
Greek, Carthaginian, Roman and Arab traces survive across the island, from Sicily's temples to Sardinia's nuraghe towers, and Alghero's walls sit within that longer story.
